“Students should work hard, be disciplined and be consistent to excel in life”, said Dr. P. Veeramuthuvel, Project Director, Chandrayaan-3, Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) at Vellore Institute of Technology (VIT) on Sunday.
Speaking at the ‘Support the Advancement of Rural Students (STARS) Freshers Induction-2024’ programme, he said that there is nothing that can substitute a person’s hard work in life. “Your hard work will always yield positive results, so put in your hard work to excel in life. You also need to be disciplined and consistent in what you do,” he said.
Urging students to learn from failures , he added, “Failures are just temporary. You should work constantly to address failures and convert them into success. Resilience is one of the key factors in life and students should be resilient when they face failures. We have overcome many challenges in the Chandrayaan-3 mission. We should also overcome many challenges in life.”

Dr. G. Viswanathan, Founder and Chancellor of VIT, said that the Centre and State governments should spend more on education as the nation that spends more for education becomes a developed country.
